WATSON’S BIG GAME PRODUCES PRIZE FOR CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL
Bengals HB Kenny Watson is the FedEx Ground NFL Player of the Week for games of Oct. 21-22, an honor which brings a $5,000 donation from FedEx to Cincinnati Children’s Hospital.
Watson won the award in fan voting on nfl.com, outpolling RBs Brandon Jacobs of the New York Giants and Larry Johnson of the Kansas City Chiefs. Each week, for both its Ground and Air awards, FedEx makes a $5,000 donation to the major children’s hospital in the city of the winning player’s team.
Watson rushed for 130 yards on 31 carries and scored three TDs in the Bengals’ 38-31 win over the New York Jets. He added 27 yards on three pass receptions.
